  1. MECHATRONICS INTEGRATED PROJECT SMART SHOPPING CART Done By: Qianyu YinMitra Varun Anand ShivakumarRajagopalan

  2. Problem: Shopping with a heavy cart!

  3. Smart Cart: How does it work? Feature 1: Follow customer and avoid obstacles

  4. Feature 2: Calculation Mode Blue Button: Stop following and enter calculation mode Red 1: Add fish to the cart Red 2: Add beef to the cart Red 3: Add Chicken to the cart Item cost is displayed in Line 1 Total is displayed in Line 2 Press Blue Button to start tracking mode again

  5. Logic diagram – Tracking Mode:

  6. Logic diagram – Calculation Mode:

  7. Circuit:

  8. Design for safety Hardware: • Power switch. • Reset button. Software: • Design philosophy “stop first, passive guidance”. • Stop first: It will only take action for the exact programed condition. • This design philosophy decreases the possibility of non-normal performance. • Passive guidance: It will only be activated when customer is at the correct position. • Do not allow the cart randomly go straight, turn around, to find its customer if target is lost. • This design philosophy decrease the possibility of collision and helps protect other customers.

  9. Working Demo

  10. How Much Does It Cost?

  11. Future Improvement • Better circuitry ( Arduino Mega) and sensors • Coded IR emitters and sensors • Bar-code scanner or RFID • More rugged wheels • Budget alert feature

  12. Conclusion: OTHER USES: • A robot that could escape from a maze • A robot that aids with disaster relief • A robot that will chase the ball
